I’m a pancake lover, which I’m sure is obvious by the number of pancake recipes on the site. No better breakfast. I’ll also eat a stack any other meal of the day. I love them! My little guy loves bananas, so naturally a banana pancake…
What’s better than waking up on a weekend to the smell of pancakes, sausage, and bacon cooking? It fills the whole house and somehow everyone seems to make their way out of their beds and into the kitchen awake and ready to start their day…with…
Who doesn’t love pancakes? Best. Breakfast. Ever! I’m not going to lie, there were times when I was younger that I would eat them for like a week straight. My mom can attest to this. Pancake binges y’all!
When you’re trying to keep it healthy it’s definitely a tough cake to make taste good and fluffy. Now, you could use some of those Paleo and gluten free mixes out there and get a decent result, but I typically notice an after taste in those, or don’t really care for some of the added ingredients in them.
I just needed to make my own damn healthy pancakes if it killed me. After much experimentation with different flour combos, I have done it. And since I love my husband so darn much and his favorite way to eat pancakes is parfait style, I dedicate this recipe to him. He also may have earned it because he ate pancake after pancake until the recipe was right.
Berries of choice – strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries are my fav
Toasted coconut or granola, optional, but adds a nice crunchy element
Instructions
In a medium bowl sift in flours, baking powder, salt, and sweetener.
Add in the milk, egg, and lemon juice. Mix until combined, but do not over mix.
Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes to thicken.
Heat coconut oil in the pan or griddle over medium-high until hot but not smoking.
Use about ¼ cup batter for each pancake, cook 2-3 minutes until it starts bubbling then flip and cook another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
Top pancake with about 2-3 tablespoons of yogurt and top with berries. Repeat with as many pancakes as you’d like. Add some toasted coconut or granola if desired.
